The Corporate Media Disinformation Campaign Around the Maryland Man Who Was Deported to El Salvador
Turns out the guy was illegally in the US, was trafficking other illegals across the country for pay, was a member of the El Salvador gang MS-13, and had two restraining orders against him for beating his wife.
The corporate media wanted you upset that this guy was deported. They called him a “Maryland father” and talked as if any person in America could be mistakenly rounded up and sent to an El Salvador prison.
Americans voted to deport illegal immigrants. Somewhere between 15 million and 30 million people are in the US illegally. That is 10-20% of the population of the country.
The Trump administration has made clear that their first priority is to deport anyone in the country illegally who ALSO has committed a crime (other than evading the legal process for entering the country).
How much have you heard in the corporate media by way of correction for their false reporting? If the answer is none, why might that be?
